Elephants & Flowers Songtext
von Prince

Boy is lonely on a burning
Hot summer night
He′s looking for some action
He's looking for a fight

He′s looking for a savior
In a city full of fools
Maybe he just needs a good talker
To give him a good talking to

Can we talk, baby?
Strip down, strip down
I think I'm gonna fall in love tonight
Elephants and flowers

Hot sweaty light paints
A picture red and gold
On a crowd of naked bodies
Stripped down to their very souls


How can he find a shy angel
In a city so bold?
He can't even find a place to dance
Huh, this is rock ′n′ roll

Strip down, strip down
Elephants and flowers
Is everybody ready? Here we go

Love the One who is love
One who gives us the power
One who made everything
Elephants and flowers

One who will listen
When all others will not
There will be peace for those
Who love God a lot

Elephants and flowers
Strip down
I think I'm gonna fall in love tonight

And when I do
There won′t be no more confusion
There won't be no more tears
There won′t be no more enemies
So that eliminates all the fear


There won't be no sorrow
And there won′t be no pain
And there won't be no ball
And no chain

Strip down, strip down
Elephants and flowers
Boy is lonely on a burning
Hot summer night
He's looking for an angel
To hold him ′til the morning light
Here we go

Love the one who is love
One who gives us the power
One who made everything
Elephants and flowers

One who will listen
When all others will not
There will be peace for those
Who love God a lot
Here we go

Love the one who is love
One who gives us the power
One who made everything
Elephants and flowers

One who will listen
When all others will not
There will be peace for those
Who love God a lot
